Shortly before he is to wed, millionaire John Willis is visited by Dr. Harry S. Blair, a psychiatrist who informs him that years before he was married to Nancy, John's wife-to-be, and warns him that she is mentally unbalanced.
Blair then relates the following story: After a whirlwind romance in Florida, Blair marries Nancy and starts a psychiatric practice in New York. One day, artist Norman Clyde comes to his office and tells him that an innocent man is about to be executed in Sing Sing Prison and that Nancy is the cause of his unjust incarceration. A distraught Clyde then explains himself to a curious Blair:
Three years before, Clyde meets Nancy, whose maiden name was Monks, when she enrolls in his art class. The moody Clyde soon falls in love with Nancy's honest charm and beauty. Nancy, a secretary, introduces Clyde to her boss, millionaire Andrew Bonner, and persuades Bonner to showcase Clyde's paintings at one of his private showings. To Nancy's delight, Clyde's painting, a depiction of the tragic figure Cassandra for which she modeled, wins first prize at the showing. The evening is perfect until an expensive bracelet is stolen from a guest, and Clyde later finds it in Nancy's purse. After Clyde confronts a confused Nancy about the theft, she relates the following story to explain her behavior:
As a young girl, Nancy lives with her housekeeper mother in the lavish Willis home and plays with Karen, the Willises' little daughter. Although Karen wants to invite Nancy to her upcoming birthday party, Mrs. Willis refuses to allow the lower-class Nancy to attend. A true friend, Karen promises to give Nancy one of the pins her guests are receiving. When Karen realizes there are no extra pins, however, she offers Nancy the beautiful locket she has just received from her mother. Nancy's subsequent joy is soon crushed when Mrs. Willis demands that she return the locket. Later, the locket is discovered missing, and Nancy is accused of theft. Although Nancy's mother soon finds the locket in Karen's dress, Mrs. Willis refuses to believe Nancy and forces her to "confess."
The adult Nancy then admits to Clyde that this childhood humiliation caused her unconscious desire to steal the bracelet at the party. After a forgiving Clyde returns the bracelet anonymously, he and Nancy continue their romance until the next party at the Bonners'. Suspecting that the absent Nancy is spending the evening in Bonner's arms, Clyde leaves the party to look for her and sees her exiting Mrs. Bonner's bedroom just after two gunshots are fired. Bonner is found murdered, and Mrs. Bonner's diamond necklace, stolen. Although Nancy and Clyde are questioned, valet Myron Dexter is eventually found guilty and is sentenced to die. Clyde, however, strongly suspects Nancy, but she angrily maintains her innocence and leaves for Florida.
Back in his office, Blair defends Nancy to Clyde but invites him to his house that evening. When confronted, Nancy denies everything and tells Blair that Clyde is merely jealous. The next day, Dexter is executed, and a guilt-ridden Clyde jumps from Blair's office window to his death.
To avoid scandal, Blair and Nancy move to England, and after World War II breaks out, Blair volunteers his medical services, while Nancy becomes an ambulance driver. Expressing concern over Blair's health, Nancy insists that they take a vacation at Lord and Lady Wyndham's manor house. Just as they are leaving, Blair learns that one of Lady Wyndham's valuable jewels has been stolen. Blair suspects Nancy but is unable to prove anything until a bomb destroys their flat and reveals her cache of stolen jewels.
Although confronted directly, Nancy continues to deny any guilt and divorces Blair after he suffers a nervous breakdown. Back in John's study, Blair, like Clyde before him, tries to convince John to abandon Nancy, who now uses the name Patton. John, however, believes Nancy when she tells him that Blair is still suffering from his breakdown.
Moments before the wedding is to start, Nancy's future mother-in-law, the unsuspecting Mrs. Willis, gives her the same locket that she once took away, and tells her that it is a precious family heirloom. The locket causes Nancy to be overcome with guilt, and she collapses at the altar in hysterics. As Nancy is later taken away to an institution, John sadly realizes the truth of Blair's story, but determines to see Nancy through her crisis.
影片中充满着妥协，虽然结局过于理想化，但其中的真情实感是很动人的。彩虹旗游行的那一幕真的让人感动。庆祝所有形式的爱，love is love
印度能拍能播是不是离homo合法也不远了 我们要下个世纪吗
基本点到了所有同志会遇到的处境，深柜、小软件、约炮、背叛、形婚、生子、领养到最后的出柜，就差代孕没说，典型的宝莱坞类型片，都这么合家欢同志都可以躺赢何必去抗争维权呢？！
印度电影的豆瓣分是有多少信仰加成，整天都是比中国烂这么多的国家拍出了我们拍不出的东西，然后就打个高分，能不能来点统一单位参照物？
看这部电影中一直感到观念的冲突，或许我已经不算是一个正宗潮汕人了，一个素质这么高条件这么好的女生，跟这么一个男生本来就委屈了，还要去潮汕舔未来公婆，看得人生气——很好地延续了潮汕话电影一贯以自恋型男生作为主角的传统。这么排斥“外省”的应该是男主奶奶这一辈人才对，现在潮汕人和外地嫁娶多了，男主爸妈这一辈早都习惯了。电影还是有很多不成熟的地方，比如低俗的插科打诨，不好笑又尴尬。相比之前还是进步了。潮阳话真是超级难听懂，尤其是男主爸爸，让人一句都没听到。
敢拿潮汕开刀，很勇。但全程的注意力在他家有好大的厝（
两代人，与时俱进和跟不上时代的父辈的沟壑其实是越拉越大的，从理性的角度年轻人没法理解上一代所有的想法，但是情感上却有着无法割舍的联系，我一直是偏理性的，所以在为人处世上会得罪很多至亲的人，客套和圆滑是我不想做的，但我不否认乡土的人情世故有其浓浓的乡味，一段时间的代入和沉浸是远离家乡的游子日思夜想求之不得的。对于一直身处其中的年轻人这是故乡的围城。各有所得吧。哪天也和我妈坐次飞机吧。
希望happy ending尽快照进现实
还算不错的低成本电影，基本都是新人演员表演的也还不错
前中各种抓马笑料百出，后期泪点不断，沙杜尔演员演技真心不错，情感真挚张力十足，每个演员不得不说都很棒，很喜欢沙杜尔的母亲和撒米的父亲，很伟大，满满的都是对子女的爱啊！再次对印度电影刮目相看，就连舞蹈配乐都美轮美奂贴切自然，棒棒棒！！！！
凤爪不是潮汕菜，这很重要；媳妇漂亮就好，外省不重要。
如何将潮汕生活的细节喜剧化这一块，还是做得很好的。但其实就是段子思维，不是电影思维。真正落实到人物情感，现实问题，就显得平庸无力。只有在最后几乎是花絮一般的镜头中，我们看到了复杂而真实的人物。一种自卑与自责，好奇与可爱，是长期封闭与落后真正被打开与溶解的开始。而这才是潮汕电影的方向。
拿到龙标后仿佛太着急了，再加上今天深圳的限座令，只能说太难了深圳坂田的影视人（诶）
还是欣赏不来这种类型的。同志的确可以参照这种找个都是同性恋的，不然就是害别人！
虽然我也两次到过潮汕拍电影，但是纯潮汕题材电影我也是第一次看，首先用了偏向极端的人物关系，挑战潮汕传统妇女的观点，但是看到中后段感觉剧情有点拉跨，几处分分镜表达不恰当，当我以为我会给这部电影打低分时，最后一段手机拍摄的表演，把我感动了，尤其是妈妈的演员，就素人演员而言，最后一段的表演，是全片最好的表演，非常真实，非常令人动容。
哈哈哈哈哈，奶奶简直是个活宝，笑不活了。笑点的打磨比前一部更用心更密集了。跟前一部没有必然联系，完全是另一个故事了。镜头摄影也比前一部更精致了。有个镜头印象深刻，阳光透过云层洒在远处的山上，近景的海浪一波接一波，就像人生，免不了许多波澜。这一部情感处理更加细腻，婆媳关系从陌生到熟悉再到陡然激化，层次更加分明。家人之间的疙瘩总是要通过沟通去解开，虽然过程会有艰辛，有一方先示弱，总会有解决办法的。潮汕的习俗，潮汕麻仁的偏见，两代人之间的隔阂，奶奶的开明，不同年龄层不同立场，没有所谓的对错。最后还是熟悉的戏份，男主跑到机场找到女主，意外的是没有挽留，女主也没有回头。最终还是he，开心～加一星支持潮汕电影，加油！
这个月可是骄傲月耶，片中的彩虹大游行真的是羡慕了
这也是我们渴望的议题探讨，至少要给人看到希望，India Bravo!
除了有点长，都很好，有一星打给印度的先进性（全靠同行衬托）。也不知道为啥，一定要歌舞吗？虽然只有一点点。
就是地方台常拍的那种家长里短剧，只能说鼓励这种在地文化的创作，但电影本身并不好看。
